[ Naruto visits the shopping center often enough, but this time he's here for one single purpose that has nothing to do with potentially purchasing goods. There's this fun little after-effect from the powers he'd been granted by good ol' Sage of Six Paths that allow him to be more attuned to the presence of a certain someone than ever before without even needing Sage Mode. Naturally that makes tracking said person down very easy and what else is there to do but bother your best friend when bored?
Nothing, that's what. ]
Sasuke!
[ He's already raising his remaining arm to wave enthusiastically as he rounds the corner before he promptly falters at the sight that greets him. It's— something, alright. He glances from Sasuke's stare-off with the water bottle to the poor broken machine and back again. Clearly an intervention is needed before the bottle falls prey to Sasuke's fearsome battle prowess as well.
Have no fear, Uzumaki Naruto is here to save hapless water bottles from getting stabbed.
He moves swiftly to join Sasuke at his table, wordlessly swiping the water bottle from him as he goes .... only to hold it back out to him so he can remove the lid while Naruto keeps it steady. Between the two of them they'll make a fully functional human being yet.
He's still eyeing the smoking vending machine apprehensively though. ]
